Learning today for a better tomorrow. We are The Richmond Family.

Welcome to Year 1!


Autumn Term
We hope you had a lovely summer holiday! We are looking forward to getting to know all of your children and having a fantastic first term in Year 1.
This term our topic is ‘How am I making history?’ We will be developing our History knowledge in this unit.
This term our Science topic is ‘Materials’ where we will be investigating the properties of a variety of materials. We will also be learning about seasonal changes throughout the year.
PE will be Dance and Striking and Fielding. Children will need PE kit for indoors and outdoors to be left at school. Children need to have their hair tied up and earrings removed on PE days.
Please encourage your child to bring their reading book and yellow diary to school each day.  If you have any questions throughout the term, please don’t hesitate to contact us via Class dojo.
